The King’s visit to Edinburgh finished with a stunning Red Arrows flypast over the city’s Royal Mile.
Crowds cheered and clapped as the RAF jets flew over the top of St Giles’ Cathedral where the monarch was celebrated shortly before.
During the ceremony, the King was presented with the symbols of his authority in Scotland - the Crown, the Sceptre and the Sword of State.
The service, which was also attended by fellow royals Queen Camilla, Prince Charles and Princess Kate, ended at around 3.20pm.
It was followed by a noisy 21-Gun Salute which was fired from Edinburgh Castle as the royals left the cathedral.
Dedicated crowds stood strong along the iconic Royal Mile to cheer and wave at the King’s procession en-route back to the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Many appeared to be growing tired due to standing in the sun for several hours.
Shouts of ‘God Save the King’ could be heard above the strong applause.
They were then treated to the aerial display from the Red Arrows - despite a lot of initial confusion about the direction they were coming from.
Scottish Conservative Party leader Douglas Ross also received a handful of claps as he walked down the Royal Mile after attending the event. He was closely followed by Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar and Scottish Liberal Democrats boss Alex Cole-Hamilton.
